Fourth step . First Assignment

Hola a todos :)
This is the fourth step for my first assignment. This time, we're required to apply the skills that we learnt in two tutorial class which are retouching and enhancing digital photographs.

Ok, now the very first step is open back the e-wallpaper that I had designed last week. I will using the e-wallpaper to do some adjustment.
This is the latest ewallpaper that I did last week.

I guess you guys sure will face the problem like below, got one easier way to solve it. Here are the steps. :)

First, click "Crop Tool" on the left hand side.

Second, crop the picture. You will see a box.
You can turn the box and adjust it until it suit the picture, just like the picture below.

Last, press "Enter" or press the "✔" on the option up there.

Tada, the picture is back to normal now hee :B

Next, I will show you those adjustment you can do on your work by using photoshop :)
There are plenty of the adjustment tools you can found it the right hand side there. If you can't the adjustment panel, you can click "Window" ---> "Adjustment". You will see this box appear (As shown below).

The first one is adjusting the brightness or contrast of the picture.

Second one is known as "Levels". You can choose many different types of the levels and also the channels. You can adjust the darkness and brightness by the arrow below the graph.

Third one will be the "Curves". Just like "Levels", you can choose different types of curves and also channels to change the colour of the picture.
Or by adjusting the line in the graph.
Can you spot the differences?

The fourth one is the "Exposure". You can adjust the color, the darkness brightness of the picture by adjusting the "exposure", "offset" and "gamma correction".
Can you see the differences before and after adjust?

The sixth is "Vibrance". You can change the picture to black and white or make the color of the picture more obvious.

You can also click "Filter", and choose any type of the adjustments there.
You can expand it and choose the effects you want (As shown below).

You can also choose different type of the clouds as your background.
Just click "Render" ----> "Clouds" / "Different Clouds" (As shown below).

You can also choose "Fiber" as your background.
Adjust it.
Or choosing "Lens Flare". Adjust where's the light you wanna put.

The last adjustment tool under "Render" is "Lighting Effects"

Besides that, you can also add canvas under or on the top of the picture.
Click "Image" ---> "Canvas Size"
Set the height to 1/2 inches. Click on the arrow in the middle on the third row if you want to add the canvas on the top of your picture.
If you want to set it on the bottom of the picture, click the arrow in the middle on the first row. You can click "Horizontal Type Tool" to type the words you want on it.

Click "Image" ---> "Adjustment" ---> "Hue/Saturation" or "Color Balance" to change the color of the background.

  1. Credit on ur effort. Erm...juz a small suggestion from me, i will suggest u to change the font for "FOM Open Day" lets say impact, Gills Sans Ultra Bold or anything to pull the audience's attention. When the students see the wallpaper, they will focus on the title 1st. =)
